William is a well-known local doctor. One day, a nobleman came to the clinic with a stomachache.

This man had been suffering from stomachache for many days, and the treatment had not been good. Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he came to William's clinic to try his luck.

William was helpless about the man's condition, but he knew that smoking had pain-relieving properties, so he recommended the man to try the Ming Dynasty Dream Hall.

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, this person came to the Ming Dynasty Dream Hall and spent ten pounds to buy a large cigarette. After trying two small pieces, his pain disappeared.

The pain that had tortured him for two years magically disappeared...

The noble was overjoyed. Whenever he heard that someone was feeling uncomfortable, he told others about his experience and recommended them to the Ming Dynasty Dream Hall.

It was passed down to ten, and passed on to hundreds. After vigorous publicity by the British aristocrats, it added a layer of mystery to the Ming Dynasty Fantasy Hall, and the business has become even more popular since then...

The daughter of a large British shipyard owner suffered from a strange illness. She was in pain all over her body and often vomited. She went to several clinics, but the doctors were helpless.

Finally, he paid a high price and was sent to Elizabeth Hospital. This hospital is a high-end hospital for the royal family.

Oxford is the best doctor in this hospital. He used several herbal treatments, but the results were still ineffective.

Don’t think that only Chinese medicine uses herbal medicine. Before the birth of chemically synthesized Western medicine, herbal medicine was also used in the West.

Even animals understand the truth. It is impossible for them not to know it, but they are just not as developed as China.

Such a great feat as the Chinese Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs is unimaginable in the West.

Oxford said with great regret:

"I'm very sorry, there's nothing we can do, you can go and look elsewhere!"

He loved his daughter so much that the boss begged:

"Doctor, can you give her pain relief? As long as she is not in so much pain, I will pay a high price..."

"I'm really sorry, there's nothing we can do..."

The boss was very disappointed because he was unable to treat his daughter because he had money, so he took his daughter out of the Elizabeth Hospital.

On the way back, I accidentally saw a clinic. I took my daughter into the clinic with the attitude of giving it a try.

The father and daughter entered this clinic, which was Alice's clinic. Now Alice has become seriously dependent on smoking.

He also introduced others to enjoy the experience at the Ming Dynasty Dream Pavilion. He did not rely on opening a clinic to treat others to make money and smoke cigarettes. He had stopped working in a clinic long ago.

It's so cool to lie in the smokehouse every day, with little oriental beauties waiting on you, and to travel in a dreamlike wonderland.

Seeing the two people coming in, Dr. Alice hurriedly greeted them. He didn't have such a good attitude before, but now he has to make money.

"Boy, please come inside quickly. May I ask where you feel uncomfortable?"

The boss pointed to his daughter:

"She is my daughter. She has been ill for more than two years. When she gets sick, she feels pain all over her body. She doesn't feel well anywhere, and there is nothing wrong with her. If you can cure her problem, money will not be a problem."

Alice nodded when she heard this:

"That's it, come and check it out."

There were no medical instruments at that time, so Alice just listened to her heartbeat and checked her pulse.

It was true that no symptoms could be found. Alice shook her head and was about to give up. Suddenly she thought of the symptoms of the nobleman some time ago, which seemed to be somewhat similar to the girl.

Before Alice could speak, the girl began to twitch again, her expression extremely painful.

The boss said hurriedly:

"Doctor, she's sick again. Find a way to help her quickly. Money is not a problem..."

Alice also had a small piece of cigarette, which he was extremely reluctant to take out. It was too expensive and most people couldn't afford it.

If the boss hadn't kept emphasizing that money was not an issue, Alice would never have taken out the big cigarette.

"This medicine can relieve her pain, but it is very expensive..."

"Take it out quickly, money is not a problem..."

Before he finished speaking, the boss immediately begged loudly.

Alice bought the cigarette block for five silver coins and used it several times. Seeing the boss's behavior, she decided to sell it at a high price, so she said:

"It's really expensive, every bit costs five gold coins..."

When speaking, she didn't dare to look into her boss's eyes, feeling extremely guilty...

Unexpectedly, the boss took out ten gold coins and slapped them on his table, and couldn't wait to shout:

"Take the medicine quickly, the ten gold coins are all yours!"

The boss owns a shipyard and doesn't care about the gold coins at all.

When she saw the ten gold coins, Alice's eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly took out a small piece of light yellow stuff, which felt soft and slightly fragrant.

He soaked a big cigarette in water and gave it to the girl to drink:

"Don't worry, it'll be fine in a moment!"

The boss had to wait patiently. After about two minutes, the girl's pain disappeared.

In the past, when the pain occurred, it would take several days to get better, and then it would relapse very quickly.

It returned to normal in a few minutes today. The boss and his daughter were very happy. For his daughter, he was going to buy Alice's cigarettes.

"Doctor, how much more of this medicine do you have? Sell them all to me!"

Alice spread her hands helplessly:

"No more. Give it all to your daughter. If you still want it, come back in two days!"

"Okay, pick it up in two days. This is the deposit."

The boss was overjoyed and took out dozens of gold coins to give to Alice, then left with his daughter.

Seeing how generous her boss was, Alice's eyes suddenly lit up...

To make so much money selling cigarettes, you can open a bullshit clinic and turn the clinic into a cigarette shop.

Thinking of this, I immediately got up and went to the Ming Dynasty Dream Hall.

She was a frequent visitor to this opium shop, and the receptionist knew her. When she saw Alice arriving, she hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and bowed:

"Welcome, Miss, are you behaving well?"

Although they are both women, Alice used to enjoy massage services from Japanese beauties before smoking.

"No, I want to see your boss."

"Meet the boss? Sir, wait a moment."

The Japanese beauty's service attitude was very good and she immediately turned around to report the situation.

After receiving the notice, the boss quickly met Alice. Before the boss spoke, Alice immediately got straight to the point:

"Boss, I want to turn the clinic into a smoking den, but I have limited funds. Can I supply the goods if I pay a deposit?"

The boss was overjoyed when he heard that the British wanted to open a opium shop. This was a good opportunity for him to explore the British market.

When the Ming Dynasty opened opium dens in Europe, it was not for the purpose of making money, but to make them become sick men of the West.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The boss said without hesitation:

"Yes, as long as you pay a deposit, we can supply you with the goods at a 20% discount. We will withdraw 20% of the profit. If the number of customers reaches a certain number, we will give you 30% of the profit. How about that?"

It was a business without capital. Alice was so excited that she wanted to cry, and she hurriedly gave the boss a gift to thank her...

In this way, another British agent was born...

British opium dens are very popular, and opium dens in other European countries are also on the right track and are growing day by day.

At this time, the Daming Opium House was already packed, and more and more British people began to lie on the tatami and puff away the smoke.

More and more British and European people are conquered by the Great Smog, and many soldiers have begun to enter the Dream Hall...

As more locals opened opium dens, factory owners and workers also began to smoke.

In order to smoke cigarettes, the shipyard owner almost paralyzed the shipyard and lost all his silver coins...

The British and European royal families were very wealthy. They were exposed to opium earlier, and half of the people were already inseparable from this magical thing.

…

After several years of development, the Daming Cigarette Shop's annual net income now exceeds eight million taels of silver, and is very likely to exceed tens of millions of taels of silver in the future...

In fact, the medicinal and edible values ​​of tobacco have benefited mankind in history, including China.

The tobacco we are familiar with is mainly extracted from the capsules of the opium poppy, which is the main product of the opium poppy.

Smoking itself is not terrible. It has been used as a medicinal material for a long time.

During the Three Kingdoms period, the famous doctor Hua Tuo used cannabis and opium as anesthetics.

In the second year of Emperor Qianfeng of the Tang Dynasty, there were records of the import of opium. In the Tang Dynasty, Arabic opium was called afurong.

In the 16th century, the Dutch introduced pipes and tobacco leaves from North American Indians to China via Taiwan, and smokers began to appear in China.

Its widespread extent made China's rulers uneasy, and Emperor Chongzhen once ordered a smoking ban.
